Debian is one of the favorites here.  Or if you are more accustomed to
Red Hat, you'll like CentOS.  Both distros are known for taking a good
long time between major updates, but they are quick about getting
security fixed out.

In my opinion, no.  It's a rapidly moving target better suited to people
who don't mind upgrading to a new release every six months or so.  You
can stretch it out a bit longer than that using the Fedora Legacy
project.  If you like Red Hat, it would be better to use one of the
clones of RHEL.

I like SuSE for a desktop distro but I'm not sure how good the free
version is.
